Currently we are looking for more bookworms. We have a number of people who want to begin, but we want to make sure enough people know about this so we give them a fair chance!…

We Are Sorry

It has been difficult to start this bookclub. In the few coming months we would like to find out who would like to start it. So if anyone is interested please reply to this comment and include in your nickname with the correct email.

Thank you

Update

We need to come back soon.

Late Update

We have created our official site and are hoping to release it anytime soon.

Does anyone have any suggestions for the book to choose for our next bookclub online meeting?

Just a note to remind you the discussions will be done through the internet forum.

Thank you

We apologize for the late post.

What did you think?

It’s been a week and we’ve gotten to our dead line! You should have gotten to the 100th page by now.

Tell us what you thought of the book?

You can comment and discuss the themes, characters, tone of the narrator, and quote from the book parts that interested you.

Don’t be afraid to be honest. You can tell us if you loved it or hated it!

Waiting for your thoughts

Orhan Pamuk

Here is a short video about the author of The New Life.

If you would like more information you can also visit his site click on Orhan to get there.

Our First Book!

 

We have chosen our first book to be read and discussed in our Bookaholics Club! The book is written by the author Orhan Pamuk, who is usually known for his other book called My Name Is Red. The New Life seems to be an intresting book which many people can enjoy. Since the Pamuk is a Turkish writer, the book is really a translation so is quite easy to read. You will find the book in Virgin Megastore in Marina Mall Salmiyah at the price of 4.700KD.

Go out, buy it, and be ready to share your point of view to people who care!

***********************

We are working on creating a forum but right now we will post ever week so everyone can comment on the book. The book is about 300 pages this will be split up into 3 weeks (each week 100pages). It is okay if you are not able to catch up, just enjoy the book.

New idea!

Thinking lately about making it easier for everyone to have a chance to join this club, we came up with the idea of using the blog as a place of discussion. If later this becomes successful, we can make a forum for it!

What does everyone think about this idea?

We’re Back…

It’s summer. I have received many comments asking me where we meet and other things. We want to start but still don’t have enough members and a good location. It is clear that Kuwait does not have enough varities of books to choose from so we are limited. Does anyone have any suggestions what we can do to solve these problems?

Thank you for the comments and sorry we have been caught up with our work.
